If anyone is having the issue with the seat occupancy sensor, you can code this option out using NCS. Once you code the seat occupancy sensor out of the SSFA module you can clear the errors and the airbag light will remain off.

Change this in the SSFA or SSBF depending on the seat sensor that is failing:

Hi
Would you please help me with the seat occupancy sensor?
I did use NCSXEPERT to upload the SSBF module file.
Then I modify the file FROM: BELEGUNGSERKENNEUNG_BF oc3 To: BELEGUNGSERKENNEUNG_BF keine_sbe, Load the file back to SSBF module.
After that the light for Passenger Airbag went off for 20 sec and then the light come back. So then I reset the SSBF module with INPA. Went back to NCSEXPERT upload the SSBF module again and notice that the file is back to original, the keine_sbe is missing and the OC3 is back. I did it 2 more times with the same effect.
Can somebody help me with this?

Yes I did read it and was not there. But something did go in because the passenger light was off for 20 sec before I cleared errors with INPA. What I'm doing wrong?

What you are saying does not make much sense. Maybe then module is reset when you are reading it or something. If you are writing to the module successfully there is no way for it to revert these options. Where in Toronto are you? Probably I can help you out and code it for you.

If you're in Toronto, you think I could get you to fix the srs light in my 325i (2006)? I'd pay you for your efforts. I'm in Vaughan. Let me know, thanks.

is there a way to reset air bag light and seatbelt message on by 745li without having to buy models.... both front airbag are deployed and passanger side seatbealt is locked. the rest of the airbags are good.. thanks

Quick question guys. Has anybody that's done the procedure checked if their seats are constantly occupied or not. Wondering cause if not, there's a chance airbags won't deploy properly. Or I'm a wrong?
Had the same issue with mine backseats and chose to buy bypass plugin instead.

Change this in the SSFA or SSBF depending on the seat sensor that is failing:

FOR SSFA
From:

BELEGUNGSERKENNEUNG_FA
sbe1

TO:

BELEGUNGSERKENNEUNG_FA
keine_sbe

FOR SSBF
FROM:

BELEGUNGSERKENNEUNG_BF
oc3

To:

BELEGUNGSERKENNEUNG_BF
keine_sbe

I can't seem to find those in either SSFA or SSBF... Is there something I am doing wrong here? Please advise..
